Just took off my thinking cap
It got filled up with too much crap
Sat underneath the table and waited for the scraps
Morsels from the feast that you used to bait the trap, yeah

You set your sights to shoot me like a pigeon made of clay
You hit me but you missed me
You can't catch me, there's no way, no

Go on try it again
Na ya missed me
All right stay with me son, we're working here
Ya ready, we'll see

I've watched you trash the mountain that was built before your time
You had to blow it up because you couldn't make the climb
You hide behind your money, it's too much for me to take
You and I both know you're just another junkie fake

Come on, burn out
Come on, burn out
Come on, burn out, burn out, burn out

The same way that it starts is the same way that it ends
You watch them going up and you see them falling down again

It's such a long way down
Lets' See multiple nose jobs, breast augmentation definitely, dyed hair, bleached teeth
They did something to your chin, don't know what that's about, it's intense though
It's like putting pearls on swine
You can dress up a pig but it's still a pig isn't it

Oink, oink, oink, oink ha ha

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

Dreamwalker
Silent Planet
I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

When We Were Young
Blink-182
This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.
Album art
Blue
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
Album art
American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
